Meet Mr. Raw! A musical pioneer under Ordior’s protection!

3rd Jul 2020

Mr. Raw aka Okechukwu Edwards Ukeje is a musical visionary! He’s one of the pioneers of Igbo Rap, a rap style that uses the Igbo language and Pidgin English. A fusion between traditional and modern, Igbo Rap draws inspiration from both its historical Igbo roots and modern African American urban styles! You won’t hear anything else like it… and you won’t hear another Igbo artist like Mr. Raw! His latest single with Phyno is sure to convince you of that.

But as impressive as all that is his music videos? They’re something else…

Impressive. So impressive that Ordior’s head was turned! We’re protecting Mr. Raw’s rights and making sure that any unclaimed royalties that his awesome songs earn are delivered to his deserving hands. This is a relatively new genre of music developing here, and with Mr. Raw and other such pioneers at the helm, we want to make sure that Igbo Rap is given the nurturing it deserves so that it can become a cultural mainstay the world over!
